The G8 Training Group is an autonomous group of direct action trainers providing
training for effective action in the run-up and during the G8. Local groups and networks can ask
for  training/workshops on specific issues by emailing actiontraining@linuxmail.org 
There is more info on the Dissent website www.dissent.org.uk under Training 
 
Workshops we can provide range from direct action training, preparing for action,
strategy and tactics, blockading and other action techniques, legal, affinity groups to quick
decision making on actions and more. 
 
To increase the base of action trainers three G8 Direct Action Trainers workshops
are being organised, in Sheffield, Glasgow and London. More info at www.skillsharing.org.uk 
 
There'll be a meeting of the group in March to discuss practicalities of providing
direct action training in the run-up to the G8 locally as well as at convergence centres. 
 
We'll also be offering workshops at the Festival of Dissent in April.
